Page 156 of My Unexpected Mate

I needed to come up with a good plan. It would be hard. Those fuckers were always around her.

But then a wonderful opportunity presented itself.

I saw them putting bags into cars and a huge grin spread across my wolf’s face.

I ran through the forest next to the only road that led out of the town. I was running slowly, conserving my energy. This time I didn’t know where they were going, so I will have to run after their cars.

After about an hour, I heard two cars ganging up on me. I slowed down even more and let them pass me before picking up speed again. Luckily, they weren’t driving fast, and I could follow them without feeling tired. For now.

I was running after the cars for a while when I noticed them pull up on the side of the road. They left the cars and I saw my beautiful girl.

Two girls started walking into the forest and my little bird stayed with the guys. Jealousy ripped through me.

I couldn’t wait any longer. I needed to have her. This could be a great opportunity to take her.

Coming up with a plan, I shifted into my human form and put on a pair of shorts I had tied around my ankle.

I grabbed the knife that was securely placed in my pocket and walked behind those two girls.

I waited for them to start walking back and grabbed the shorter one, placing my knife under her throat. The other one screamed and fell on her knees.

I heard footsteps running toward us. Four huge men appeared in front of us, and my little bird was right behind them.

“Hello, little bird,” I said, smirking. “It is so wonderful to see you again.”

One of the guys growled loudly and another one stood in front of my little bird, making it impossible for me to see her behind his huge frame. Another one of them walked toward the girl that was kneeling in front of me. He helped her up and pulled her away.

“Well, isn’t this nice,” I said, sarcastically. “You are protecting her. Too bad it’s not going to work.”

I heard whispering, but I didn’t even care what they were whispering about. I knew I would have her with me soon and that was all I cared about. She will not let her friend suffer because of her. I knew that.

“Little bird,” I called her. “I will let your friend go if you come to me.”

The blonde man growled loudly.

“No, Aria, don’t!” the girl in my arms shouted.

“Shut up!” I yelled at her.

I heard footsteps and I looked up to see my little bird walking away from them and toward me. A huge smile spread across my face. There she is.

“Aria, no!” somebody yelled.

I looked at them and saw they were going after her.

“One more step and I am cutting her throat,” I yelled and they stopped moving. “Come on, little bird. We need to go.”

I watched her walk toward me. They were screaming and shouting at her to stop, but she didn’t. That’s my girl.

When she was close enough for me to grab her, I pushed the other girl to the ground. I took her hand and pulled her away from the girl on the floor. I couldn’t risk her trying something.

I turned her around so they would see she was mine. I placed a knife under her throat. Not to hurt her, but to make sure they won’t make any sudden moves.

The blonde man was growling so loudly I could feel it in my body. Interesting. He was really upset. Why was that?

I leaned in and rubbed my nose up and down her jaw and I took a deep breath. She smelled amazing. Her skin was so soft. I couldn’t wait to touch more of her.

“How I missed you, little bird,” I said. “You smell amazing.”
